Science and Butterflies

 

 

Lokstet Science

 

Aiden, Gemma, and Keiran have been enjoying our new Apologia science this year.  Lately we have been learning about terrifying sharks. The living text is full and the kids can remember lots of facts about each sea animal, as well as have fun with the workbook pages. We also are still collecting each creature as we learn about them and their place in the ocean. 

Aiden is my quick learning and is always writing down facts before I finish reading.



 



Eeeeek! Sharks!

Gemma is neat and organized and loves to write facts as she goes, but also stops to get the spelling of words she is unsure of. She also loves the coloring and scripture pages to color and will spend some extra time on them for fun.



 

Keiran definitely loves science and can recall so so many facts. He is less confident to write as he is listening to mom read, but he is absorbing it all and is fascinated. 

 

A growing ocean...

 

 

And Butterflies!

The Lokstet kids loved joining in on the fun of raising butterflies. Watching the caterpillars through their life cycle and then into butterflies was exciting for all. They even invited the neighbors to watch our release. All six butterflies were successful.
